Hidden costs to watch for
- Per-student feesDo costs jump significantly as you grow past 100 students?
- Module add-onsAre events, costumes, and recitals included or extra?
- Support tiersDo you have to pay more to talk to a human?

Who should choose what?
We were studio owners first. Here is our honest take.
Choose CRM Dance if...
- You want a modern, clean interface that parents love using.
- You value having a tech partner who helps with your website and SEO, not just admin software.
- You want hands-on help migrating your data and setting up your season.
Stick with Jackrabbit if...
- You have a massive multi-location setup with complex, legacy accounting needs that requires deeply specific old-school workflows.
- You are heavily customized on their specific API integrations and building custom software on top of it.

Common Switching Questions
Will I lose my historical data?
We recommend exporting all historical reports from Jackrabbit for your records. We import active families, students, and your current schedule to keep your new system clean and fast.
Do you replace QuickBooks?
No, and we shouldn't. We provide excellent revenue reporting that makes your bookkeeper happy, but we believe accounting software should do accounting.
How long does it take?
Most studios can switch in 1-2 weeks depending on how fast you can provide the data exports. We can move as fast as you need.
